Description

This Recommended Practice Guide for Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) deployments is designed to provide sufficient information to identify the most appropriate deployment method, instrument selection, and setup for a range of applications that utilize stationary deployments. An ADCP is a commonly used instrument in the offshore oil and gas industry to measure and monitor the current profiles, i.e., how fast water is moving across an entire water column.
